Milt really sucked as a candidate.
So, if you took all of those votes and combined them you would have 12,201,366 votes.
Here’s how they would break down in a 3 way election:
Trump: 41%
Romney: 30%
McCain: 29%
Your welcome.
Thank you for your effort. much appreciated
Romney threw the damned election and barely lost to Obama. The press always establishes the narrative that the Democrats will win every presidential election with their extreme leftist candidates.
Trump has a real shot.
Conclusion: Republican Establishment low life & Obama...puppets, Mitt Romney & John McCain were “weak sister” losers from A-Z!!! They have a new partner...and, his name is John Kasich!!!
wow! Very informative.
Thanks for all that work.
Great info!
Thanks!
The two losers did not compete against 17 other candidates.
“The two losers did not compete against 17 other candidates.”
Also, the other two losers competed against kooks like Ron Paul or FORMER governors like Huckabee. Trump has been up against the governor of Ohio, current senators of major states etc.
Bookmark. Good data.
As a Texan, I am somewhat bewildered by Romney's performance in Texas. These numbers speak for themselves though. There is absolutely no doubt that Trump has been drawing votes far beyond anything the establishment candidate were able to produce in recent elections.
One thing that everybody must keep in mind is the size of the field that Trump has been battling. He has been faced by a huge array of competition, plus incoming attacks from both parties as well as the media.
